Different departments can share the cost of the position and the student workers’ time.

The fee is a business expense, NOT a charitable donation.

…and it works:

Businesses report that a CWSP team adds fresh energy, enthusiasm, diversity, and productivity to the workplace. The students’ presence raises satisfaction among staff who enjoy direct contact with students, and appreciate playing a role in their education.

Deserving, low-income students are able to earn 65% of the cost of their tuition to Christ the King.

Most students return to the same job site throughout their time at Christ the King. Time initially spent training students will pay dividends as they grow in their careers with you and take on more complex tasks.

Job partners and students build their professional networks. Job partners hire alumni of Christ the King and are building qualified and talented diversity for future leadership within their company/industry.

The ‘school that works’, which began in 1996 at Chicago’s Cristo Rey, is now a nationally recognized model with thirty-two schools across the country. Nearly two thousand companies in corporate America partner with the program.
